Whittington Health Library offers a comprehensive and modern library service to NHS staff from Whittington Health, Camden and Islington NHS Foundation Trust, Islington CCG and Primary Care. Book loan and IT services are also provided to UCL students working at Whittington Health, as well as study space and IT services for Middlesex University students on placement at the hospital.

Where are we? The library is based in the Highgate Wing of the hospital on Dartmouth Park Hill. We are close to several transport links, making it easy for you to visit.

What have we got? The library collection covers areas such as medicine, nursing and mental health. There are quiet study and reading spaces, a computer area and a dedicated training room which can be booked for meetings. As well as traditional library services, the facility offers students innovative ways to access resources. The library is taking part in a pilot project to provide medical textbooks and local clinical guidelines to junior doctors as smartphone apps, making them instantly accessible at any time. There are further information resources available online.
